GSoC 2016

[Rajdeep Surolia <rs...@gmail.com>]

Sir/Ma'am,
              I am new to open source and have some knowledge in C/C++ and
JAVA. I want to participate in GSOC '16 for ASAF. Can you please guide me
through the process. I am serious about contributing to ASAF and
participating in GSOC '16 and willing to learn new things that are required
in the process. Your help will be much appreciated.

The GSoC application process for students doesn't start until 14 March.
 While mentoring organizations haven't formally been announced, we
expect the ASF and a number of our Apache projects to be participating -
however we don't have that list ready yet.

The best thing to do now is review the GSoC site for the process:

  https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/

If you want to start looking at what different projects are at the ASF,
you can browse our projects directory - but note, only some projects
will be participating in the formal GSoC program:

  https://projects.apache.org/

Thanks for your interest and good luck!
